Gonzo: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson

Driven by an unbridled libido, Wild Turkey, and prodigious drug use, Thompson emerges as a fearless freelance writer who guts sacred cows with impunity, humor, and a steel-eyed resolve to expose wrongs. Focusing on the good doctor's heyday, 1965 to 1975, the film assembles rare, never-before-seen home movies, audiotapes (unheard until now), and passages from unpublished manuscripts.
